NEW FOR 2014!
Hospital Design for the 21st Century
January 18 - 20 | Saturday - Monday
BETTER FACILITIES MEAN BETTER CARE. Providing better care to our animals starts with a more strategic approach to designing and outfitting hospitals, clinics and veterinary facilities, and learning from professionals in the field of hospital design, like keynote speaker Fritz Wood. With a limited number of spaces, participants in this exclusive “Hospital Design Workshop” will take part in interactive panels with experts in all areas of hospital design, including architects, builders and financing pros. They’ll share their experience and examples, and demonstrate how enhancing your facility will enhance your level of care and your overall practice, too. • “Hospital Design Workshop” takes place at our brand new classroom near the Marriott Exhibit Hall. • Intimate setting and small classroom means one-on-one learning with instructors and your fellow attendees. • From ground-up construction to remodeling projects and facilities additions – our pros will cover it all. • Interactive panels will address your specific questions and areas of interest. • Exclusive Friday night reception offers another opportunity to network and learn.

Continuing education hours
CONTINUING EDUCATION HOURS With more than 1,200 veterinary CE sessions, no other veterinary conference offers you a broader array of subjects. You’re sure to find topics of personal interest, as well as courses for your entire veterinary team. The NAVC Conference 2014 Scientific Program grid starts on page 84. Information replaces any earlier versions posted on NAVC.com, delivered by mail or sent by email. Grid wall displays are located at the Gaylord and the Marriott. Be sure to download the NAVC Conference mobile app for realtime schedule and event updates! NAME BADGE To record CE attendance, tap your conference Name Badge with the door monitor each time you enter a session. We recommend you also document each CE session you attend on the 2014 Record of Participation in CE Programs form on page 81. Please remember: Name Badges are required for access to evening events. RACE-APPROVED CE The NAVC Conference 2014 courses meet the requirements for CE credit in jurisdictions that recognize AAVSB RACE approval. Please note: The Certificate of Attendance and number of veterinary CE hours you receive will be based on your registration type (Veterinarian, Veterinary Technician, Practice Manager, etc). Some boards have limitations on the hours accepted in certain categories or restrictions on methods of delivery for CE as well as specific procedures for certification and documentation of attendance. Compliance is the responsibility of the registrant. HOW VETERINARY CE CALCULATION WORKS 75 minute session = 1.5 CE credit hours 50 minute session = 1 CE credit hour 20 minute session = 0.5 CE credit hour 15 minute session = 0.25 CE credit hour CE credits for Hands-on Laboratories, Masterclasses and Meet the Professor Luncheons are calculated on the number of hours each entails. It is the attendees’ responsibility to track and report their earned CE hours to the appropriate licensing boards. DOCUMENTATION Procedures for certification and documentation of attendance are determined by the individual state board. Compliance with these policies is the responsibility of the registrant. We recommend that you keep a handwritten record of your session attendance to compare with the copy you can email or print at the CE Centers during the conference. CHILDREN & GUESTS Please note, children and guests are not allowed in scientific sessions. Please take full advantage of our KiddieCorp Program and Hello! Florida activities.
VETERINARIANS LICENSED IN NEW YORK AND TEXAS Veterinarians licensed in the states of New York and Texas MUST obtain their CE Certificate prior to leaving the NAVC Conference 2014. Certificates are printed at the NAVC CE Centers in the City Hall Lobby at the Gaylord and Palms Foyer at the Marriott and cannot be mailed or issued after the Conference.

GENERATIONS IN THE WORKPLACE
Saturday, January 18 9:15 - 9:55 AM Open to All! (badge required)
Marriott | Canary Room
For the first time in history, four distinct generations are employed sided by side in the workplace. With differing values and seemingly incompatible views on leadership, these generations have stirred up unprecedented conflict in the business world. Effective management of this generational divide is vital to every organization’s longevity and success.
Cam Marston is the leading expert on the impact of generational characteristics and differences on the workplace and the marketplace. As an author, columnist, blogger, and lecturer, he imparts a clear understanding of how generational demographics are changing the landscape of business. Marston and his firm, Generational Insights, have provided research and consultation on generational issues to hundreds of companies and professional groups, ranging from small businesses to multinational corporations, as well as major professional associations, for over 15 years.
What are each generation’s core values? What do they expect of their leaders and how do they define success? In this engaging program, renowned speaker Cam Marston answers these questions and much more. Learn how each generation developed its core values, how that manifests in the workplace today, and why they can all not only operate alongside each other, but do so with extraordinary success. This program provides the generational insight, concrete examples and specific approaches to help frustrated managers build the individual connections needed to boost employee performance and retention. Attendees will walk away knowing the common generational characteristics, specific leadership needs of each generation, the new definition of company loyalty and fresh guidelines for team building.

Seeing you at least once a year helps pets live longer, healthier lives. And better pet health starts with a conversation—between members of your practice healthcare team, and between your team and the pet owners who depend on your clinic for their pets’ care. Partners for Healthy Pets provides tools to help you have more successful conversations with your clients about preventive care and has developed a powerful consumer campaign to help clients understand one simple step they can take to safeguard their pet’s health: the annual veterinary visit. The consumer campaign will help to bring the client to you, but what happens AFTER that is UP TO YOU.
Words That Work—Better Preventive Pet Healthcare Begins with a Conversation Karyn Gavzer, MBA, CVPM Monday, January 20, 2014 | 5:30 PM – 6:45
PM
| Gaylord | Miami Room
Please join Partners for Healthy Pets and practice management expert Karyn Gavzer, as she shares words that work to encourage pet owners to embrace regular preventive care.
Stop by Gaylord booth 522 or visit www.partnersforhealthypets.org for more information.

NAVC 3D PRINTING IT’S THE VET’S NEW BEST FRIEND!
Days Open: Saturday, January 18 – Tuesday, January 21 At these locations: Gaylord l Captiva 1, Marriott l Atrium Three dimensional printing or additive manufacturing, has many uses in today’s veterinary practice. Whether it’s a new ear, a beak for an eagle or a 3D model extracted and printed from an MRI, dimensional printers are great tools to help inform clients, plan a surgical procedure and even create prosthetic parts and bone substitutes to help heal patients. As opposed to utilizing a solid block of material and removing all the unnecessary material until the desired object is created, 3D printing creates objects by bonding the print material from the bottom up, one layer at a time. View these printers in action at the NAVC Conference.

NEW! It’s a soft chew. Kills both fleas and ticks. It’s prescription only.
NexGardTM (afoxolaner) is the protection you asked for, and patients will beg for. NexGard is FDA-approved to kill fleas, prevent flea infestations, and kill the American dog tick. NexGard is available only with a veterinarian’s prescription, and features anti-diversion technology monitored by Pinkerton® Consulting & Investigations.
®FRONTLINE is a registered trademark, and TMNExGaRd and FRONTLINE VET LaBS are trademarks, of Merial. ®PINKERTON is a registered trademark of Pinkerton Service Corporation. ©2013 Merial Limited, duluth, Ga. all rights reserved. Nax14TRadEad (01/14).
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION: For use in dogs only. The most common adverse reaction is vomiting. Other adverse reactions reported are dry/flaky skin, diarrhea, lethargy, and anorexia. The safe use of NexGard in pregnant, breeding, or lactating dogs has not been evaluated. Use with caution in dogs with a history of seizures.
CAUTION: Federal (USA) law restricts this drug to use by or on the order of a licensed veterinarian. Description: NEXGARD™ (afoxolaner) is available in four sizes of beef-flavored, soft chewables for oral administration to dogs and puppies according to their weight. Each chewable is formulated to provide a minimum afoxolaner dosage of 1.14 mg/lb (2.5 mg/kg). Afoxolaner has the chemical composition 1-Naphthalenecarboxamide, 4-[5- [3-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)-phenyl]-4, 5-dihydro-5(trifluoromethyl)-3-isoxazolyl]-N-[2-oxo-2-[(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)amino]ethyl. Indications: NEXGARD kills adult fleas and is indicated for the treatment and prevention of flea infestations (Ctenocephalides felis), and the treatment and control of American Dog tick (Dermacentor variabilis) infestations in dogs and puppies 8 weeks of age and older, weighing 4 pounds of body weight or greater, for one month. Dosage and Administration: NEXGARD is given orally once a month, at the minimum dosage of 1.14 mg/lb (2.5 mg/kg). Dosing Schedule: Body Weight 4.0 to 10.0 lbs. 10.1 to 24.0 lbs. 24.1 to 60.0 lbs. 60.1 to 121.0 lbs. Over 121.0 lbs.
Afoxolaner Per Chewable (mg)
Chewables Administered
11.3 One 28.3 One 68 One 136 One Administer the appropriate combination of chewables
NEXGARD can be administered with or without food. Care should be taken that the dog consumes the complete dose, and treated animals should be observed for a few minutes to ensure that part of the dose is not lost or refused. If it is suspected that any of the dose has been lost or if vomiting occurs within two hours of administration, redose with another full dose. If a dose is missed, administer NEXGARD and resume a monthly dosing schedule.
In the US field study, one dog with a history of seizures experienced a seizure on the same day after receiving the first dose and on the same day after receiving the second dose of NEXGARD. This dog experienced a third seizure one week after receiving the third dose. The dog remained enrolled and completed the study. Another dog with a history of seizures had a seizure 19 days after the third dose of NEXGARD. The dog remained enrolled and completed the study. A third dog with a history of seizures received NEXGARD and experienced no seizures throughout the study. To report suspected adverse events, for technical assistance or to obtain a copy of the MSDS, contact Merial at 1-888-637-4251 or www.merial.com/nexgard. For additional information about adverse drug experience reporting for animal drugs, contact FDA at 1-888-FDA-VETS or online at http://www.fda.gov/AnimalVeterinary/SafetyHealth/ProductSafetyInformation. Mode of Action: Afoxolaner is a member of the isoxazoline family, shown to bind at a binding site to inhibit insect and acarine ligand-gated chloride channels, in particular those gated by the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), thereby blocking pre- and post-synaptic transfer of chloride ions across cell membranes. Prolonged afoxolaner-induced hyperexcitation results in uncontrolled activity of the central nervous system and death of insects and acarines. The selective toxicity of afoxolaner between insects and acarines and mammals may be inferred by the differential sensitivity of the insects and acarines’ GABA receptors versus mammalian GABA receptors. Effectiveness: In a well-controlled laboratory study, NEXGARD demonstrated 100% effectiveness against adult fleas 24 hours post-infestation for 35 days, and was ≥ 93% effective at 12 hours post-infestation through Day 21, and on Day 35. On Day 28, NEXGARD was 81.1% effective 12 hours postinfestation. Dogs in both the treated and control groups that were infested with fleas on Day -1 generated flea eggs at 12- and 24-hours post-treatment (0-11 eggs and 1-17 eggs in the NEXGARD treated dogs, and 4-90 eggs and 0-118 eggs in the control dogs, at 12- and 24-hours, respectively). At subsequent evaluations post-infestation, fleas from dogs in the treated group were essentially unable to produce any eggs (0-1 eggs) while fleas from dogs in the control group continued to produce eggs (1-141 eggs). In a 90-day US field study conducted in households with existing flea infestations of varying severity, the effectiveness of NEXGARD against fleas on the Day 30, 60 and 90 visits compared with baseline was 98.0%, 99.7%, and 99.9%, respectively.
Flea Treatment and Prevention: Treatment with NEXGARD may begin at any time of the year. In areas where fleas are common yearround, monthly treatment with NEXGARD should continue the entire year without interruption.
Collectively, the data from the two studies (one laboratory and one field) demonstrate that NEXGARD kills fleas before they can lay eggs, thus preventing subsequent flea infestations after the start of treatment of existing flea infestations.
To minimize the likelihood of flea reinfestation, it is important to treat all animals within a household with an approved flea control product.
In well-controlled laboratory studies, NEXGARD demonstrated >97% effectiveness against Dermacentor variabilis 48 hours post-infestation for 30 days.
Tick Treatment and Control: Treatment with NEXGARD may begin at any time of the year (see Effectiveness).
Animal Safety: In a margin of safety study, NEXGARD was administered orally to 8- to 9-week-old Beagle puppies at 1, 3, and 5 times the maximum exposure dose (6.3 mg/kg) for three treatments every 28 days, followed by three treatments every 14 days, for a total of six treatments. Dogs in the control group were sham-dosed. There were no clinically-relevant effects related to treatment on physical examination, body weight, food consumption, clinical pathology (hematology, clinical chemistries, or coagulation tests), gross pathology, histopathology or organ weights. Vomiting occurred throughout the study, with a similar incidence in the treated and control groups, including one dog in the 5x group that vomited four hours after treatment.
Contraindications: There are no known contraindications for the use of NEXGARD. Warnings: Not for use in humans. Keep this and all drugs out of the reach of children. In case of accidental ingestion, contact a physician immediately. Precautions: The safe use of NEXGARD in breeding, pregnant or lactating dogs has not been evaluated. Use with caution in dogs with a history of seizures (see Adverse Reactions). Adverse Reactions: In a well-controlled US field study, which included a total of 333 households and 615 treated dogs (415 administered afoxolaner; 200 administered active control), no serious adverse reactions were observed with NEXGARD. Over the 90-day study period, all observations of potential adverse reactions were recorded. The most frequent reactions reported at an incidence of > 1% within any of the three months of observations are presented in the following table. The most frequently reported adverse reaction was vomiting. The occurrence of vomiting was generally self-limiting and of short duration and tended to decrease with subsequent doses in both groups. Five treated dogs experienced anorexia during the study, and two of those dogs experienced anorexia with the first dose but not subsequent doses. Table 1: Dogs With Adverse Reactions.

Whether it’s a new ear, a beak for an eagle or a 3D model extracted and printed from an MRI, dimensional printers are great tools to help inform clients, plan a surgical procedure and even create prosthetic parts and bone substitutes to help heal patients. As opposed to utilizing a solid block of material and removing all the unnecessary material until the desired object is created, 3D printing creates objects by bonding the print material from the bottom up, one layer at a time. View these printers in action Saturday through Tuesday at the Gaylord Palms and Marriott.
